Touched@Converter

I was totally taken aback today….when Mr. P gifted me a converter for my laptop charger for which I have been struggling…. It was totally unexpected…… Thanks a ton Mr. P…. I was really touched and impressed……..

Bappi@Pappi

Today was Bappi’s Day….. And she made our (LAD+others) day too….with her great cooking skills…..she made awesome parathas…. paneer and gobi….best of parathas you can have…… seriously mouth watering……. I was so impressed with her that got senti and all….and fed her food with my hand…… (Lucky GAL)….

And I was so touched by her……that I gave her a kiss…….on her cheeks…..Now I had to give her something in return for the delicious parathas… so made TEA for her……and now it was her turn to get impressed…… and she did….. And I got a kiss in return….hahaha……

P.S.: Thanks all.....for contributing and making it a memorable saturday afternoon....

Metro@Shampoo

People lost things, loved ones and many more in the movie:- Life in a Metro'....thank god i just lost my shampoo bottle.......hahahahhaha

Me@Dabba

‘Dabba’….it has been the savior for us all these days….our stay back phase at the institute…. Lunch or Dinner, invariably we have the Dabba……

Before moving out of home 8 years ago……had never heard about the concept of dabba….. Then in Delhi did hear about it but never had a chance to have it….. Then came to know about the Dabba Walas in Mumbai……the way they have been functioning for so so many years so efficiently and have been a topic of case study in many management institutes across the globe…

So thought, when will I get a chance to have the dabba??? ­The day was here….my training in Mumbai last year gave me an opportunity to have the dabba finally…

The very strange thing about these dabbas are that…… two people generally share one dabba… and then after having it your tummy is still not full…and if you try to have the whole it becomes a little too much….. So prefer sharing then over eating…….

And sharing dabba helps you build a kind of bonding with the one whom you are sharing…. because one generally shares the dabba with the same person everyday… at least here in the institute…so we call people as dabba partners…hahahaha

But it can get boring to share with the same person day after day…. So good to have it with somebody else once in a while….and I got this chance today after I was ditched by 2 of my friends…..

So it’s all about serendipity once again……. Hahahha…..

Stunned@Cobbler

Today I had given a bag for repair to a cobbler….he said, he will take 30 minutes to do it…So I came back and went after ½ hour….But when I reached, he still hadn’t completed it…I got pissed….but when I saw him working with one hand and his feet (his other hand was not fit to work with), I was stunned, my heart melted like an ice cream… I couldn’t utter a word…. I patiently waited for him to complete it….and when he gave the bag, the quality of stitching was not good….but I had no words to say…So I gladly accepted the bag…….and returned……still astonished….

"Never wait for the other person to speak up, go ahead and do the needful".

"A single incident can change the whole perspective of how people look at you".

Lonely@Crowd

One can be lonely even amidst numerous people. They may be your friends, acquaintances and many more, but you still may feel like a loner. May be someone you want in the crowd is not present. Or even if someone is there you can still feel the same, because you’re in the crowd and can’t savor comfort. So you budge out of the crowd to feel at ease. But when out, and if the one you want alongside, is not there… you yet again feel like a loner.

P.S.: So try to adjust and rejoice in everyone’s company… (Easier said than done though…)

Eating@Survival

Eating food just to survive.......bare minimum, so that can live life.....

Behavior@Situation

Situations can make you act in a certain way…….so that things can be handled…… One situation can make you act in a certain way and the other altogether in a different manner….. And if both the situations happen to arise at the same time….behavior related to one should not sway the other…..but if the influence can’t be controlled, its fairly natural….. One should put in a sincere effort to make sure that one doesn’t stir the other……

Heartbeat@Possession

Today for a second, my heart was beating at the rate of knots......as I thought I had lost my priced possession once again....but thank god......love behind it saved it from absconding.......

Dhakkan@Dhadkan

Paani Puri to ek bahana hain,

Duniya ki sabse sundar ladki ke saath jaane ka…

Paani Puri mein kya rakha hain,

Yeh to sukha hain, paani ke bina baijaan,

Par yeh ladki apne mein hi hain kamaal….

Paani puri ke liye line mein lagna padta hain,

Par yeh sundari to line marne layak hain…

Paani puri, kabhi khathaa, kabhi meetha,

Yeh ladki to sabhi ka milap hain…

Paani puri to ek bahana hain,

Enke saath samay bitaane ka…

Finally@Over

Finally we are over with our final course @NID…..on Brand Management…..finally!!!

After so much of fuss over the course timings and stuff……whether it should be before jury, after jury….later on…….when will be the faculty available? When will we all be around…….at the same time…….?? But we finally managed to have it……with all here except one (missed you N)……

Over 2 years we had so many modules……design drawing, form, material exploration, SLA, open elective, entrepreneurship, retail, …..Mini projects, major projects etc etc…

Each course was different……. Some courses were quite successful……some were ok…and some disaster…….. Especially the major project 1 and 2(for which we have to stay back now….shit man….)

Some courses I enjoyed and some I hated……. Some I slept through…… One I hardly attended…. I liked some faculty; some were okay and hated one and still do……

All the extra curricular activities like monsoon fiestas, various festivals, salsa classes…..all have been great great fun………..and ID winning the MF 2006 was great moment for ID as a whole and for me as I wanted to end my last MF on a winning note…..

Overall 2 years here have been enriching…..have gained a lot but have lost a few…..
Still don’t regret coming here……….always wanted to be here…was my dream to be at this place…….tried at UG level, failed miserably…. Then thought will give it a shot at PG level…and thank God got through at the 1^st attempt…….. I think that was one of the best moments I ever had when I heard the news that “your name is there on the list”…. I was in the train on my way back to Delhi after giving the interview…..was absolutely elated for few moments, couldn’t believe it but soon came back to reality………

Then came here and spent some of the best moments of my life….met some great personalities….some great people….have made some really good friends ( I hope)…..and had many ups and downs, many personal problems as my class mates call it….. This place has thought me many things…..but don’t know how much I will be able to implement in my life ahead…….

The last 2 years have flown like ‘The peregrine’ (fastest bird) before I could realize……. I wish I could relive this 2 years again……..but I think it’s the time to look ahead…..exicted but scared...
